Ok, so, the reason I am using MVC (aside from the fact that the fine folks at Microsoft made it) is because of the mega snazzy url rewriting. I need to be able to have customers type in mydomain.com/clientname and be taken to their own personalized section
of the site.
MVC does enable me to do that, no? I would just have to have the index check for a query string text value and use it to find the customer ID then do a redirect?
It makes sense that I would be able to do that, I just wanted to make sure before taking the plunge.

Yes. You can define your own routehandlers and such.

excuse me - do you has a flavor?
This is hardly anything new. Rails can do this too, and it's in v2 already. ASP.NET MVC is pretty much just a copy of that, which isn't even V1.Bas said:Yes. You can define your own routehandlers and such.
Mind you, Rails is much more mature. It even has it's own data layer! -

Yah and also, wasn't the url routing stuff pushed back into ASP.NET for everyone to get some love .NET 3.5 SP1?wisemx said:Go IIS7 and you'll be even happier.

Yes. .NET 3.5 SP1 contains URL Routing, but not ASP.NET MVC.HumanCompiler said:

Nobody claimed that it was new. Somebody just asked if it was possible. And it is.Chadk said:

- Figure out which page to load and call (Normally done with filesystem but you can introduce modules or Virtual Path Providers to make it more interesting)
- Call the ProcessRequest method on the Page
- Use Routing to find the Controller object to call
- Call controller object's action method
- Find View to call
- Load view and send to client
I'm a big fan of this new system. It takes me back to writing web apps in Perl in college where I basically used the same model where one object performed the requested user action and the other displayed the HTML/JS.

(our approach uses pure xml for writting the rutes) pretty cool, yes, wondering what will we do after MVC comes out of beta... probably nothing thought
